“It's the kind of technology that fits naturally into our environment. When people see the metal cards and experience the simple tap functionality, it tells them everything they need to know about how we operate.”
Dominic HwangDominic HwangTechnology Integration Specialist, SpaceX

The challenge

SpaceX used paper business cards for years.

Cards got lost, details went out of date, and there was no way to know if a contact led anywhere.

After every event, staff typed up contacts by hand. Design and print runs were slow.

Printing tens of thousands of cards a year also clashed with the company's green goals.

What they changed

The technology team picked V1CE. Each person got a metal card with their name, title and page. A tap shares their details, and new contacts upload automatically. IT and marketing manage every card from one dashboard.

StepWhat they did

The outcome

  • 65% less manual data entry.
  • 70% better follow-up.
  • $11,500 saved a year on printing and design.
  • 8,000+ paper cards avoided.

SpaceX plans to roll the cards out to more teams, from engineering to investor relations.
